I would never reset someone else's clocks because you never know why they have been set for that time!

For some flavour of "someone else's" -- the microwave was in the kitchen of the local s-f club's building and presumably had bet set at random after a power-outage (or possibly, considering the nature of fans here in the Los Angeles Area, by someone who wanted to see if anyone would correct it).

Wait, isn't it our job to right all wrongs?

If the company kitchen microwave clock counts as someone else's, then yep, definitely. (Where setting clocks certainly ain't in my job description.)

No, but someone else has set the (incorrect) clock on my oven.

Years ago when I was living in Bracknell, our local church had a number of clocks. Whenever British Summer Time started or finished, all of the clocks got changed by someone, but no-one knew who had done it.

A few years ago Mervyn Jackson died. A couple of months later British Summer Time ended, and all of the church's clocks were wrong.

Mystery solved, well done Mervyn.
